10/19-The Possession of Michael King (2014)




















I don't have much for this movie as it didn't really do anything particularly special.  It is a found footage akin to Paranormal Activity with the combination of both stationary cameras set up throughout the house and handheld shaky cams.

Basically, Michael's wife dies because of bad psychic advice, so he sets out to make a documentary disproving the existence of god or the devil.  Spoiler alert, he gets possessed.

This isn't to say the movie didn't have its scary moments, but a lot of the jumps relied on being loud.  Which to be fair, did make me jump, but it feels a little forced in retrospect.  There's not a whole lot about this movie that is memorable, perhaps with the exception of the needle scene, but again, that's because I have a fear of needles.  So I'm a little biased towards wincing.

Rating on the Spook-o-meter: 3 out of 10 boos
